Forms 11g does not start using JRE later than 8 Update 121

134868Mar 2 2017 — edited Mar 3 2017

Hi, I just installed JRE 8 Update 152 (early access) from here: https://jdk8.java.net/

Same problem for JRE 8 Update 122 (early access). Any JRE previous to this release works fine.

When trying to run a Forms application (Version 11.1.2.2.0) using servlet in IE11 (Windows 7), the Forms application does not start.

In "Oracle JRE will no longer trust MD5-signed code by Default" https://blogs.oracle.com/java-platform-group/entry/oracle_jre_will_no_longer there is an indication that this is caused by frmall.jar not being signed properly (obvously it is MD5-signed which is not supported in upcoming releases of JRE).

I was wondering why I did not find any other users complaining about this problem. Does anybody know of a fix or a workaround? When the next JRE will be deployed by Oracle, IMHO all Forms 11g-Users (not sure about Forms 12c) will be in trouble...

Thanks, Michael
